Bryan and Jim are great! Jim has a gift when it comes to teaching. The Part 107 Course was presented in a way that is easy to understand and had no problem breaking down a lesson when extra attention was needed. I could not have done it without V1 Aeronautics.

V1 aeronautics is your one stop shop for training and testing for your UAS pilot test. I just had an awesome experience with them. They offer an awesome course that prepares you in two days for the test. There are other places online that offer services but give V1 a shot. They will prepare you to take the test in two days and pass with flying colors.

Great course for the sUAS CERTIFICATION! Easy to walk through and from zero to confident in the course of a weekend!
S. Smith, Hagerstown, MD -
I completed by commercial drone training and tested this week. Bryan was a pleasure to work with and did a fantastic job. I got a great score on my test because of the thought out training. I highly recommend Bryan and V1 to anyone looking for aeronautics training.

UAV Pilot Training
Well worth the expense, I probably would have failed without this class! Bryan and Jim were both excellent instructors who really knew the subject matter and taught in a way that would be retained.
During testing I noticed that some of the questions are worded in such a way that it would be easy to miss the right answer unless you have a strong understanding of the topic. This class helped me to identify those nuances and easily pass the test. I highly recommend the V1 training course to anyone who is serious about flying a UAV commercially!

If you’re going to take a course to prepare for your commercial sUAS testing, V1 Aeronautics is the place to do it. I originally did it through a website (which just provided glorified PowerPoint slides…no way of asking questions) which didn’t go so well. This was before we knew that Bryan offered classes. Wasn’t too confident when I went in for my initial exam. Took the class through Bryan and passed with a much higher score than I thought and was incredibly more confident taking the exam. The lesson here is to stay away from online “classes” and take your class with V1. Much better experience and was a ton more fun than staring at a computer screen for hours. Totally worth it!

The Remote Pilot Certification Course was very beneficial. The information from the 2-day course helped me pass the Aeronautical Knowledge Test and it provided me with real-world knowledge to fly a drone as a commercial operator. The training instruction was well-organized, making the information useful and easier to retain.

Absolutely amazing. I was so scared at first, but so glad I did it!

Had a great sunset flight the other day! They were extremely helpful and flexible with scheduling the time. Highly recommend them!!
Jake Q., Martinsburg, WV -
Bryan was amazing! Flying was a dream come true for my husband and 4-year-old-son. This is an experience they’ll both never forget and should expect to see my son in about 13 years when he decides to become a pilot.
Randi E., Hagerstown, MD -
Bryan and Jim provided a high quality educational experience for remote pilot certification. Their expert advice and training enabled me to pass the exam with flying colors. Thank you V1 Aeronautics.
Mike M., Bismark, ND -
What an experience!!! A memory that will last a lifetime. I set up a surprise flight for my wife and our five year anniversary. It was so much more. She even got to fly for a little bit, under Bryan’s experienced and watchful eye, of course. We are doing this again!!!

My boyfriend and I flew with Bryan on a Sunday evening for a sunset tour. Bryan stayed in touch with weather information and his thoughts on whether we would be getting a good sunset or to reschedule if not. We very much appreciated that! He made us feel relaxed and safe… Like we were flying with a friend. We saw a beautiful sunset and got lucky to get a full moon too. If you are looking for something new and exciting to do in this area we recommend V1 Aeronautics!

I purchased the introductory flight package with V1 Aeronautics and I took my 14 year old son along with me. We had a great time. Bryan Adamez, the owner/operator, took the time to answer all of our questions during the initial walk-around and pre-flight check of the modern Diamond DA40. I climbed into the pilot seat with Bryan in the co-pilot seat and my son in the back. After clearing with the tower, we taxied up to the runway and he let me push the throttle forward to take off. After I flew the plane for a half hour or more, which was a blast, he landed the plane and let my son take the plane off and fly the plane as well. He enjoyed it immensely. We had a wonderful time and I highly recommend it.
